Feature Grammar/spelling Checker

    See the little ABC above the check mark in the editor buttons?

    Guess what that is? It's a spelling grammar checker... if you can't put together a meaningful sentence, now you can have help. :)

    Maybe we'll start getting really annoying and rejecting new posts with bad grammar automatically. lol

    Best feature. Ever! And a good idea to reject new posts automatically! I can imagine some people will be stuck for hours trying to bypass it. :D

    Very nice idea. Not something I see myself using that often but great for non native speakers.

    Well I think the main problem is that people aren't going to use it... but we'll see. :)

    But... it's a backend API doing the checking... which means we can use that API to do it automatically if we so desire down the road. :)

    Believe it or not, the quality of post has actually gone up a bit since the change. In the old system, I'd literally just run across new users posting gibberish and I'd just whack all 50 of their posts and ban them. There's been a couple of those under the new system, but nothing like before.

    Finally,
    Sure this will come in handy to those who don't speak English as a first language.
    Will make it easier on everything I'd think.

    Yes friend I agrees with u!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This shall help good SEO on your site!!!!!!!!!!! And so do Article Marketing!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    ^^^ Sadly, there's no way to automatically reject THIS kind of posts, which I find far more annoying than occasional misspellings.

    None of you have accounted for the comedy factor here. Now that we *may* not have these ridiculously spelt posts we may lose the good laughs we used to get. How many times have I laughed so hard at the bad spelling that I had tears in my eyes?
    Now you're telling me that we could lose this for good?:)
